Security operatives have reportedly taken control of the Azbir Hotel and Azbir Arena, properties linked to former Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), in Kebbi State.
Eyewitnesses confirmed that police personnel were deployed to the facilities early on Tuesday, effectively restricting access to the premises. The reason for the police presence has not been officially disclosed as of the time of filing this report.
A video circulating on social media shows armed officers stationed at strategic points around the hotel and event centre, while movements in and out of the facilities appeared tightly controlled.
Attempts to get a response from the former minister or the Kebbi State Police Command were unsuccessful, as no official statement had been released regarding the development.
The situation has sparked widespread reactions, with residents and political observers closely monitoring events, amid speculations over the circumstances surrounding the security operation.
